I had no idea there were jumping-only classes... now if only I can get Merlin better behaved around other dogs, he would love that! He can jump like a stag and loves it, no treats or persuasion needed, I just have to point and say "Over!"
Yippeee- Merlin-agility! That'd be brilliant! He sounds like an agility star in the making. Do you have any decent agility clubs near you- I'm sure they'd be willing to help- they might even have some small classes or private sessions that can double up as socialisation sessions? I know there was one place near me that did agility but it was more of a general outdoors training/socialisation with the training exercises being for agility. Lots of fun. I'll try and find the name of it.

I think I'll probably go for steeplechase classes first, as the one in the video, i could probably do now.

would this be a good show to start with? it does steeplechase. it doesn't say when or if dogs need to be measured before or on the day?

No problem
Yes go for it! It'll be great. I've only just started competing with my baby dog and it's such a great feeling, seeing how far you've come!

Strange isn't it... they haven't stated that measuring will be available on the day but they put the specs up.
Not sure on that one- I guess the only way to find out for sure is to give them a ring.
